I'm working on a simple LED thing for a friend. It will simply be a microcontroller blinking around with some RGB LEDs on a stage. There will be maybe 5 stations with 5-10 of the LEDs each all connected to a box that will control them. I'm trying to think of the best way to connect them around a stage so I figure telephone wire and contacts would be the cheapest. I found some that are rated for much higher than a few volts at 1 amp but I'm worried about how to actually connect them to the wire. I don't want to buy a crimper or some special tool.

It says that it is IDC, does that mean that it is definitely the sort that just clamps down onto the wires? The data sheet does not seems particularly detailed in that area...
Thanks
